Set midi out mask problem

Morningstar Gear MC Pro Series MIDI Controller
1

Hi, I have some problems with my mc8pro (latest fw and editor):

“Set midi output mask” does not seem to work when
Before/after an “Engage preset”
Before/after a “Trigger messages”
As a preset itself, and then run by another “Engage preset”
Another issue I have is to engage a preset that holds “Trigger messages”

The midi monitor only show 1-16 trigger messages, and all check boxes are unchecked.

Any ideas?

I just took a look at the code and yes, the masking isn’t applied when you use engage preset or trigger messages. What controller model are you using? I can compile a firmware version with this fix if you want to give a go

Thanks for your reply. It’s the mc8pro, and yes please I’d like to have a go and test.

Let me know how this works for you, thanks!

The masking for trigger message seems to work now. The masking for Engage preset also, except when the Engage preset holds a Trigger messages in it (but probably related to the other issue)

Are you referring to this issue?

the MIDI Monitor in the editor only shows the latest 16 messages (we’ll fix that). You can use another MIDI monitor like https://www.midimonitor.com/

No, it’s when lets say preset A has a “trigger messages” message and then trying to engage preset A from preset B. Nothing happens when I engage preset B.
